Still some good names in the portal... any ideas? Caliendo, Pentz, Renteria, Eichens, Nolan, Bryan, Franek, Mastro, etc.
-
Are NIL deals one year deals? For some reason that's what I was thinking they were when connected to a booster at a school. Some pros and cons either way. Obviously guys that have NIL deals that are more national and outside the university boosters can do that (as well as guys on the senior level).
-
The PA posts about Marstellar, Nolf, etc. have been good. He brings some interesting facts to his posts. Good read.
-
Salted with some truth as well. Do you really think that the rich aren’t getting richer and able to buy their way to trophy contention every year? Despite the way Koll comes off he’s speaking what most wrestling fans know to be true.
-
I would agree. I’m not sure what high school kids are getting though. I only hear the rumors of the portal guys.
-
What about it? Koll's reference was clearly to what has happened this off-season with the portal and the teams most active in paying out NIL money - not in recruiting.
-
The problem is that the kids getting the scholarships are the mid-tier kids whereas the top elite kids are getting NIL to cover expenses. It's just another way of getting extra scholarships.
-
IMO guys from the former school who followed the coach that recruited them is a different story than paying out guys in NIL deals to transfer. I wouldn't blame someone for following the coach that recruited them ... buying a team with NIL is different.
-
Where was Nico previous to Stanford? Dom Lajoie is the only one I can think of that has transferred in and it's doubtful he is getting NIL money.
-
Stanford’s transfer rate for acceptance is between 1.15% and 1.17%. Their options are very limited with the portal
-
Not sure, but according to the article they have things in place to help keep kids around. I imagine it’s definitely harder to transfer into Stanford than other places.
-
Is listening to an offer as the coach, but turning it down , different?
-
“ I don’t need to dip into the portal because we won’t lose guys,” Koll said. “I’m building a team, not buying a team like the Penn State, Iowa, and Michigan models.”
-
I don’t know if I called it specifically, but I did call that he would be a good fit. We got the gas tank … now the vanilla gorilla.

I-84.

My reference is not to grasping it with the hand but hooking it with the leg and sitting on it. This will eliminate one aspect of stalling. Grasping the ankle now goes beyond the hand grabbing the ankle. Watch much college wrestling this past season?

From a Feb 2014 ESPN article about grayshirting: “Nobody really remembers when it first began. Some coaches say it's been around forever, while others say it started to catch on only over the past 10 years. ” Giving credit to the term “gray shirt” to Mike Grey and changing the spelling would have been a great story. -
Yep … and if you read the article from JAN 08 you would see that the article is based on the premise it’s already been going on for awhile.
-
Cmon now …. Read the article at least. January 08 is as close as you get to 07. If you read the article it’s partly based on the previous season and it’s written under the premise that it’s been going on for awhile.
-
The “all situations where the wrestler grasps the ankle “ will help at least stop one aspect of top stalling
-
Debatable. SB nations article from January of 2008 referring to it as “gray shirt” in the context of what was happening in football at the time. https://www.dawgsports.com/platform/amp/2008/1/15/155239/437
-
Sure... they could duplicate it or keep complaining that it's unfair. I guess there is probably a lesson in here somewhere about that...
-
I would agree that Mike Grey is allowed to coin the term for Cornell usage On a side note, I think he earned it for what he did this past season... along with coach of the year IMO.
